Physicians Practice, a division of UBM Medica, will hold Physicians Practice LIVE, a virtual conference and exhibition for physicians and administrators, for the second time this year on September 22. This exciting event will provide a full day of practice management seminars, networking with colleagues and industry experts, and an opportunity to see the latest in practice management products and services, all for free. The virtual learning environment gives attendees a cost-effective way to get crucial practice management information without having to leave their office.
"With sweeping changes underway in the world of medical practice management, physicians and administrators are looking for real-time solutions to pressing challenges, such as how to deal with the new ICD-10 coding rules; how to respond to government demands for greater accountability in billing practices; and whether now is finally the time to purchase an EHR system," says Bob Keaveney, editorial director of Physicians Practice. "That's why our first Physicians Practice LIVE event, in April, was such a huge success, with more than 2,000 registrants. Physicians Practice LIVE is a wonderful opportunity for our audience to directly access the experts and key thinkers shaping the world of practice management — without the burden and expense of travel."
The September virtual event will feature six content seminars with topics including Coding: ICD-10; Stop Losing Money; Negotiating with Payers; Understanding Emerging Regulations; Billing Challenges; and Moving to a Paperless Process. In addition, attendees can visit the Resource Center to download white papers, podcasts, and other valuable tools. And the Networking Lounge will provide an environment for attendees to chat through instant messaging about topics affecting their practice.
Attendees can also visit the Exhibit Hall where industry-leading vendors will be on hand to demonstrate the latest in practice management products and services. Nearly 25% of attendees at the April virtual event registered specifically to speak with the exhibitors, making the Exhibit Hall a popular feature of Physicians Practice LIVE. There are different levels of sponsorship opportunities available for vendors, including booths on the exhibit floor, and sponsorship of the content seminars. Also in the Exhibit Hall will be the Ask an Expert and Ask a Coding Expert booths where attendees can chat directly with industry experts to get answers to their most pressing practice management questions.
